Help Shape NOAA’s Future

Join NOAA Administrator Dr. Jane Lubchenco on December 2 and help her chart NOAA’s future.

Dr. Lubchenco will lead NOAA’s Next Generation Strategic Plan National Stakeholder Forum at the George Washington Marvin Center, Washington, D.C. The public forum will be hosted by NOAA’s Office of Program Planning & Integration and George Washington University’s Trachtenberg School of Public Policy and Public Administration.

In recent months, NOAA has gathered input into NOAA’s Next Generation Strategic Plan (NGSP) through extensive consultations across the country and the NGSP online survey. Through this process, stakeholders helped form NOAA’s long-term strategy. NOAA now seeks suggestions on specific actions the agency needs to take over the next three to five years that will help to achieve this strategy.

Attendees will include representation from the Department of Commerce and NOAA senior leadership as well as a variety of peak level stakeholders, such as Congressional officials, private industry leaders, non-governmental organizations, and others.
